Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I had friends in school but could not make friends in college. I am feeling depressed because of that. I could not focus on my studies.

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern.

I suggest you need to make good friends because you will not have the same old friends throughout your life. You will meet new people in new places in the future. You should go and meet new people. Try to make friends with the same background, so it will be easy for you. Try to talk with the opposite gender. You will learn about new people and various cultures. It will help you to build confidence.

I hope this has helped you.

Thanks and regards.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
